CoEET - Center of Excellence in Educational Technology

The Educational Technology Innovation Center (ETIC) at NIIT University (NU) creates pedagogic innovations using industry-linked projects. These are implemented by a student body that forms the Center of Excellence in Educational Technology (CoEET). CoEET is responsible for the planning, coordination, and execution of more than 60 Educational Technology projects at NU each semester, through its various desks. Every project ensures the interfacing of multiple subjects so that students realize the interdisciplinary nature of real-life problems and therefore do not learn in silos. Project teams comprised of students from both BTech & Management take on industry-relevant roles, conduct research on real industry problems in various threshold domains and propose solutions. The Industry becomes a partner in their learning by providing them with real-industry problems and tools to solve them. Students are awarded marks in their respective subjects for their contribution to the project solution. This experiential learning-based multi-disciplinary approach is inspired by NU's core tenets– Industry-linked, Research-driven, Technology-based, and Seamless. The outcome is that students are prepared to handle market uncertainty in the following ways - • Technology skills – they have skills that the Industry needs. • Workplace skills – most 21st Century skills are developed in project-based learning mode. • Unknown job readiness – they can navigate new learning and situations. • Changing technology trends – they can adapt to all new technologies for learning and growth.
